What are we to do about those winter days
Now fast coming on?
Brisk flakes fall on the sidewalk
Stone cold.
And vanish over the years.
Leaving their considerable contribution ?
The enrichment of their talents ?
To the impoverished environment of our times.
Gone at a moment?s notice.
Given away to friends,
Only to be replaced
By the supplemental bitter feud.
Penetrating
Apathetic
In want of heat
But safe for now and blue from cold

Nice verses. If you are melancholic about winter, come to Canada, Alberta.
It snowed there yesterday.
I am very familiar with the place. I just got a twinge at the prospect of aging.

As we age, we remember more and more things, especially those which have not happened.
